After listening to Zhou Hexuan's analysis of the root causes of the October Revolution, Linard frowned and asked: "Mr. Zhou, like those Bolshevists, thinks that the revolution in Russia is just and progressive?" ”

Once Zhou Hexuan admits it, it will be defined as a red molecule. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 He smiled slyly: "Justice and progress, it depends on whom." It's like the French Revolution, which was a rebellion for the emperor and justice for the insurgents, and it eventually became a nationwide riot. Who can tell? I think only history can give the answer. ”

"That's a rebellion, not a revolution!" Ivanova shouted hysterically, "They not only executed the aristocrats of Tsarist Russia, but also expelled thinkers, artists and scholars, and the life of the peasants was even more miserable than in the days of Tsarist Russia, when tens of millions of people starved to death in the Great Famine five years ago!" ”

Zhou Hexuan resisted the urge to roll his eyes and reminded: "Madam, the total population of Russia is only more than 100 million. ”

Ivanova shouted: "Just starved to death by tens of millions, at least a third of the Russians died of famine because the Soviet government robbed them of their grain!" That's a bunch of executioners! ”

"Madam, please calm down," Peter Pan asked Zhou Hexuan expectantly, "Mr. Zhou, do you think the kind of government in the Soviet Union can be maintained?" When will it collapse? ”

Zhou Hexuan thought for a while and said: "I have studied their various policies in the past ten years, and I dare to predict: as long as there is a strong strongman to lead the Soviet Union, the country will develop and advance at an unimaginable speed." ”

"Why did you come up with this judgment?" Leonard couldn't help but use an inquiring tone.

Zhou Hexuan said: "The Soviet Union's economic policy in recent years has tended to abandon agriculture and light industry and go all out to develop heavy industry. It is a large country with a vast territory and a large population, and as long as it continues on this path, its heavy industry will develop several times faster than that of other countries, and it may achieve the equivalent of 100 years of growth in the United States in 20 years. ”

Peter Pan exclaimed: "How is it possible to give up agriculture and light industry, and the Soviets do not have to eat or clothe?" ”

"It can also be said," Zhou Hexuan said coldly, "they only need to meet the basic needs of more than 100 million people, and the rest of the money is used to develop the industrial system." A lot of people will starve to death, a lot of people will be killed, but the whole country will be able to grow by leaps and bounds. ”

There was a dead silence in the living room, and everyone was imagining the kind of society that Zhou Hexuan described, and as the upper class, they shuddered about it.

After a long time, Leonard suddenly said eagerly: "Mr. Zhou, I would like to invite you to write for the Beijing-Tianjin Times, and even recommend your article to the headquarters of the British Times. ”

Peter Pan also hurriedly said: "Mr. Zhou, I hope that your theories and opinions can be published in the "Zilinxi Daily". ”

In today's Western world, there is only instinctive fear and hostility towards the Soviet Union, and no one has yet done an in-depth study of it, and even the Soviet Union itself has not yet determined the course of development. It was not until after the world economic crisis in 1929 that the capitalist countries represented by Britain and the United States fell into a quagmire, while the economic situation of the Soviet Union was very good, that the world became interested in it.

Hearing the collective invitation of two foreign-language newspapers, the Chinese in the living room were shocked. They just listened to the story and felt that Zhou Hexuan was very sharp-tongued, but at this moment they realized that Zhou Hexuan really had material in his head.

Pu Yi, Wanrong, Lu Jingyan, and Xu Ziquan all looked at Zhou Hexuan with a surprised expression, only Chen Shaomei didn't react to this, because he didn't understand English very well, and he didn't know what everyone was talking about.

Facing the invitation of the two, Zhou Hexuan smiled and said: "I happen to have some manuscripts in my hand, I don't know ......"

"Zilinxi Newspaper is willing to pay a high price of 6 yuan for 1,000 words!" Peter Pan is in charge of his own affairs, but in fact he is just a journalist and has no right to price his manuscript at all.

But Linald is the deputy editor-in-chief of the Beijing-Tianjin Times, and he laughs: "We are willing to pay 10 yuan for 1,000 words." ”

This Nima is sky-high!

Zhou Hexuan didn't want to offend anyone, so he suggested: "Two gentlemen, it's better to do this." My manuscript was published in the "Zilin West Daily" and the "Beijing-Tianjin Times" at the same time, and the manuscript fee is 5 yuan per 1,000 words. ”

Leonard and Peter Pan glanced at each other, as if they had reached some kind of tacit understanding, nodded in agreement, and said, "Yes, that's it." ”

Zhou Hexuan became a man of the year in the salon, and then everyone revolved around him, literature, art, religion, history, and customs of European and American countries...... It seems that he knows everything, knows everything, and can talk about any topic, which makes everyone even more surprised.

In fact, Zhou Hexuan is not so awesome, and his understanding of many fields is only superficial. But there are not many experts here, enough for him to fool around, and occasionally say some opinions in the future, which can make these guys shocked.

Not to mention Queen Wanrong, even Lu Jingyan, a woman with a fiancé, looked at Zhou Hexuan's eyes with colorful ripples, with great admiration and admiration.

After discussing Shelley's poetry, today's salon finally came to an end.

Marrien held Zhou Hexuan's hand and smiled and said, "Mr. Zhou, today's salon is very wonderful and meaningful, why don't you stay here for dinner." When my husband comes home, he will be more than happy to exchange ideas with you. ”

"Thank you, ma'am, for your hospitality, but I have some business to do tonight, next time." Zhou Hexuan politely refused, he knew the essence of too much and to the point.

"I'm looking forward to the next meeting." Marion said happily. The more exciting her salon is, the more face she will have in the circle, and it will be a conversation point when she returns to Paris in a few years.

Everyone said goodbye and left, Pu Yi deliberately stayed for a moment, leaned over to Zhou Hexuan's side and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Zhou, where are you now?" ”

Zhou Hexuan started to play, his expression was helpless with anger, and he said with a wry smile: "I wrote a martial arts novel a while ago, and Chu Yupu Chu Dashuai likes to read it very much, so he sent someone to invite me to Dashuai's mansion and forced me to be his foreign secretary." ”

Pu Yi was very disgusted with Chu Yupu, and said angrily to the enemy: "That's a bastard!" Mr. Zhou, you are too condescending to follow him. ”

"But I can't help it, there's a big soldier with me all day long. Unless I fled directly from Tianjin, I would not dare to disobey his orders at all. Zhou Hexuan said half-truthfully.

Pu Yi finally revealed his true intentions, and said in a sincere tone: "Mr. Zhou, why don't you help me." For the time being, you can mix in Chu Yupu to do internal response, secretly plan for me, with your peerless talent, as long as we work together, we will definitely be able to do a great cause! ”

It is said that Pu Yi's heart is higher than the sky and his life is thinner than paper, and now he still wants to regain his position. It's a pity that there is a shortage of talents under him, only one Kang Youwei is actively running, and the other vassals are all old and young who are outdated.

Not to mention the strategists, Pu Yi is even short of guards at the moment, and there are only a few eunuchs and palace maids who go out of the palace with him. According to the development of history, he will sell antique calligraphy and paintings next year, and invite martial arts people to expand the guard, including Huo Diange, the eldest disciple of the spear Li Shuwen.

Zhou Hexuan was noncommittal, and said with a smile: "Let me think about it." ”

Pu Yi felt as if there was a play, and he was immediately overjoyed, and arched his hand: "It's all up to Mr." ”

Zhou Hexuan didn't pay attention to it anymore, and walked out and shouted towards the side room: "Bolt Zhu, go back to the Marshal's Mansion!" ”

Pu Yi's mood was quite excited, and he felt that he was about to recruit a great sage. Zhou Hexuan's performance at the salon just now not only won the admiration of many foreigners, but also shocked Pu Yi, he is now in urgent need of such a strategist who understands the world situation.

"Can it be done?" Wanrong asked worriedly, she didn't want to be a queen, she just wanted to live a peaceful and leisurely life. In her opinion, the Tianjin Concession is much more interesting than the deserted Imperial Palace.

Pu Yi clenched his hands into fists and encouraged himself: "It will definitely be done!" I am the Son of Heaven, I am the Emperor, I was born to rule China! ”

Wanrong didn't speak, only looked curiously at Zhou Hexuan's distant back, and that person gave her an indescribable strange feeling.
